Well, this is only a sample of our page.
We have lots of buttons that call popups that need
different actions and targets, so onSubmit does not work because
we are not submitting the opening page. The popups are "tools" for the page.
And the readonly attribute is in its proper place. We do not want
the user to be able to edit the field. For instance, the popup
called for an Image will display all images in the system. The user
will pick the image and the image ID will be placed in a hidden input
type and the image text will be placed in the text field.

quick guess: you have the value readonly outside the value attribute
field. I also don't see why won't you use onSubmit instead.
